My heart belongs to you!

Hi Copic friends!!!

Today I've got some valentine inspiration. Yes, I made a valentine's card! 

I love to make them but mostly I don't sent them to anyone, maybe it's time for a change... 😉

I choose to work with this cutie by C.C. Designs and she's called "Tiny Heart". I think she's so adorable! I always colour the skin first and after that I do the hair. 

Here you can see a picture when I did that and here I mapped out where the shadows are going to be. I always do that with a light colour first, and if I'm happy with that, I do the same with the darkest colour.  I guess it's just how you like to work.

Here are the Copic colours I've used: 

skin: E04, E11, E21, E00, E000, E93

hair: E59, E25, E23, E41

turqoise: BG18, BG13, BG11, BG10

pink: RV69, RV17, RV55, RV52

white: C5, C3, C1

red: R59, R46, R24

 After I coloured this little girl, I did the background with some Distress Inks, drawed some hearts with a white gelpen and I stamped some hearts with a fushia ink to give it some more life.

I added some sequins for a finishing touch.

White

Hi everyone!

Today there's a new challenge at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps! It's called "White".

I must say, it wasn't an easy one for me, I'm not used to not using colour.

So I played with a few textures on my card, I used 2 embossing folders to create a design in a white paper. As a finishing touch, I've used some clear sequins. The stampset I've used is called "Sincere Thanks" by Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps ofcourse ;-)

Have you seen the new Krafty Komeback?!?!? Kimmie's re-releaseing SQUISHY HUGS in clear!!!! and a teeny bit updated!

Now create a card, scrapbook page or altered item with a Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp or any other stamp and be sure to use our THEME as a starting point for your creation!!! You will have until February 3rd at 11:55 pm EST to get your entries in!

Pull out those fabby stamps and play along! Have some krafty fun and join us this week!!

Sealed with a Kiss

Hi  everyone!

Today it’s my turn again to show you some inspiration. I’ve created another Valentine themed card because I love to make them! I really love fairytales and Make it Crafty has so many fairytale themed images. Today I used the “Sealed with a kiss” one. The princess who wants to kiss a frog, who doesn’t know that story?

First I cropped the digital image so I was able to just use the upper part from the image and printed it out at 10 x 10cm. I wanted the focus on the frog and the princess instead of the gorgeous dress she’s wearing.

Here are the Copic colours I’ve used for this beautiful princess:

• skin: E04, E11, E21, E00, E000, V22, RV42
• hair: YR20, E59, E09, YR14
• turqoise: BG18, BG13, BG11, BG10
• pink: RV69, RV17, RV55, RV52
• white: BV25, BV23, BV20, C1
• frog: G28, YG17, YG13, YG11
• crown: E37, E35, YR23, Y21

I also added some heart tinklings that I coloured with a pink gelpen as finishing touch.
Make it Crafty product list:

• Sealed with a Kiss digital stamp
• Mini Hearts Chipboard Tinklings

 Hi everyone!

Because Valentine is only about a month away, I made a card for it. Everyday should be Valentine’s day for couples, but I like to do something special on that day. A card with a note how much you love the other one is always nice. You can’t say enough how much you love him/her.

I used this girl for my card today because you see she’s dreaming, she looks so in love and happy.

I coloured this sweetie with my Copic markers. Here are the colours that I’ve used:

• skin: E04, E21, E11, E00, E000, E93
• eyeshadow: V25, v22, V20
• hair: E29, E19, E17, E15, E21
• pink: R89, RV29, RV25, RV23, RV21
• turqoise: BG18, BG13, BG11, BG10
• green: YG67, YG53, YG61
